Is this a meme yet or is there supposed to be a joke other than me

No but for real I have this paralysis fear of iq tests because I suspect I am a total moron so I do sometimes these public ones so I can have an excuse in case it goes wrong and it never showed me something bad and theoretically I am not stupid but I feel like I am

IQ tests are pseudo-science at best. You've been tricked into thinking they are important.

Imposter syndrome is something tons of people deal with.

Edit: Removed last comment, did not mean to imply this was an unimportant issue or minimize it.

I am not fine lol

I doubt fine ppl spend an hour a day on shady chan-like site focused on farming internet drama and at least twice a week instruct AI to write an elaborate troll post (just before estrogen injection procrastination)

Yeah fair enough, I had just removed that comment before I read your response because it seemed flippant which wasn't my intent.

This is part of the problem you know. I don’t even know you but I already dislike you. Not for the og comment but because you care so much

Yeah, having a negative reaction to people willing to genuinely interact with you is a problem. Good luck!

Well I always bonded with ppl hating on things together I must confess. There was nothing quite like misery bonding and never will be. It’s just perfect

Though it does make life a bit more dramatic I guess because I never hide my opinions to find those who think alike and have this genuine connection

It’s some kind of autism I suppose

Intelligence is independent from executive capabilities though. Plenty of dumb neurotypicals, plenty of really smart people with ADHD. A ton of intelligence is useless if you have executive difficulties because you will never apply said intelligence into something beneficial for yourself. Intelligence is also multidimensional and a spectrum. I've met a lot of really stupid people with doctor titles and highly technical work roles. You can be a genius in area A while also being an absolute moron in area B. That's just normal life.
